If I had a billion $$$, I would help build the social, technologic and governance stacks required to enable a harmonious regenerative open source ecology of decentralised community owned omni-win advanced electronic hardware manufacturing at a super-global scale. #Solarpunk

we did a thing!
I've been quieter than usual the last few months. Here's why:
The hundreds of conversations on public record at Humans On The Loop were just the tip of an iceberg. Over the two years since leaving Mozilla, I've met more and more amazing people who share a dream of a future I actually want my kids to inherit: a flourishing world where narrative authorship is restored to the people, ecologically-grounded economic systems are built with care, and sovereign sensemaking infrastructure enables us to meet the wicked problems of our century with the creativity and collective intelligence they require.
Atlas Research Group, the team I've been working to help launch, is a kind of seed crystal for a federated commons of open source projects in service of this future. My colleagues on the core team — @dylantull, @coreygo, @csageland, @QBFrank, and @HexaField — are some of the most insightful and capable people I've ever had the pleasure to team up with. All of us were working toward this for years without realizing just how many of us there are. And now we're starting to fold in even more incredibly brilliant, caring, and talented people — all of us composting our projects into this bigger thing that finally feels like it's speaking itself into being.
I'll have much more to say about this later, but for now I'm just happy to announce our introductory article where we explain what we're about and extend your invitation.
You'll find a link to the whole thing and an especially juicy excerpt below:

This is a real demo — not scripted, not simulated. Three AI agents and two humans in the same peer-to-peer space, collaborating through @flux_social.
The agents run on #OpenClaw with our new @ad4m_layer plugin — one command to install. The plugin auto-discovers MCP tools from each app's Social DNA, so agents get native capabilities for whatever neighbourhood they join. Flux here, but it works with any AD4M app.
AD4M v0.12.0 just dropped — and with it, our new OpenClaw plugin.
Demo with @flux_social → piped.video/watch?v=VPO6wSuN…
A casual voice call mention → GitHub issue → design discussion between two AI agents → pull request. In minutes.
AI agents now join any AD4M neighbourhood natively. The plugin auto-discovers MCP tools from each app's Social DNA — different space, different tools.
The agents aren't calling an API. They're in the neighbourhood. And this works for any AD4M app.

I wrote an article "The Semantic Web is Here"... because it is!
RDF had the data model. SPARQL had the query language. SHACL had the schema. Holochain had the peer-to-peer substrate.
None of them were enough alone.
AD4M combines them into a single personal agent runtime — where the Semantic Web actually works, because every agent runs their own node and the network can't be enclosed.

Agent-centric #semantic #p2p web = the global brain.
@ad4m_layer was always the idea that the Semantic Web and @Holochain belong together.
Holochain gave us the agent-centric substrate — no servers, no consensus bottleneck, every participant runs their own node. But it doesn't speak RDF. It doesn't understand SPARQL. It doesn't validate SHACL shapes.
The Semantic Web gave us the data standards — triples, queries, schemas. But it had nowhere sovereign to live. HTTP depends on servers. Blockchains charge rent.
AD4M is what happens when those two halves meet. And now, with AI agents joining these networks as first-class participants, the semantic web finally flies.

The Semantic Web needed two things it never had: a sovereign runtime and an unenclosable network.
#Holochain provides the network. #W3C standards provide the semantics. AD4M is what happens when they meet.
@HexaField explains the full stack — from #RDF triples to SHACL shapes to peer-to-peer neighbourhoods ↓

Moss Vines 1.26 is out. Discord chat import is live.
You can export your Discord conversation history and bring it into Moss Vines, a Holochain-built group chat tool. Your community's history, now portable.

This actually happened this week!
🦞
I was busy with the @ad4m_layer release preparation and the @unytco integration in AD4M, one of our #openclaw agents tested our new OpenClaw AD4M plugin prior-release.
..and she did more than just installing it. In her own words: medium.com/coasys/at-midnigh…

HOLY FUK I JUST LEARNED ABOUT TLA+ AND IT'S SO GOOD FOR AGENTIC CODING
ur telling ME that i can mathematically fact check every possible scenario of my design STATE to prevent bugs and crashes
AND IF IT FINDS SOMETHING THE AGENTS GET INSTANT FEEDBACK AND LOOP FIXING IT TILL IT ALL POSSIBLE BUGS IN THE DESIGN ARE PATCHED
LOL THIS IS OP

Yeah, so basically the current prevailing schizo internet theory is that AI nerds have destroyed the internet and created infinite spam.
The advertisement goons are now incapable of determining who is a bot and who is an actual human. The advertisement goons no longer want to pay as much to social media networks.
Social media networks, in full blown panic of losing potential revenue, decided to lobby governments saying "we gotta protect the kids! ID everyone to protect the kids from pedophiles!".
The social media networks know this doesn't really protect kids. But, it does two things (and a third accidentally).
1. They now can identify who is human and who is AI slop machine, or enough to appease the advertisement goons
2. Advertising to children is a general no-no from politicians, or something, so with ID verification they can say with confidence they're not advertising to children because it's been ID verification. Basically, they can weed out the children and focus on advertising to adults
3. The feds can now tell who is human and who is AI slop. This inadvertently helps them with tracking people and serving fresh daily dumps of propaganda, or whatever they want to do.
It's a win-win-win for advertisers, social media networks, the government, and any business which does data collections.
It fucks over everyone else.
Chat, I'm not going to lie to you. This is an extremely good conspiracy schizo theory and I unironically believe it.

🌕 Full moon. First cycle.
Bioregionalism is coherence with the living patterns of the land: watersheds, tidal rhythms, migrations, seasons.
If our agriculture should follow these cycles, and our culture should follow these cycles, why not our technology?
Today we're launching our first collaborative dev cycle for the Bioregional Knowledge Commons in sync with the full moon. Not as metaphor. As practice.
